A number of Newcastle United players have already been in action on international duty this week.
14 players contracted to the club were called up to their respective nations during the November international break. Two have been forced to withdraw due to injury while several have already played as the Euro 2024 qualifiers come to a head.
But this week has so far brought mixed fortunes for the Newcastle players who have played so far, with more in action over the weekend.
Bruno Guimaraes celebrated his 26th birthday this week but Brazil's World Cup qualifier woes continued as they lost consecutive qualifier games for the first time in their history in what has been a disastrous qualifying campaign so far.
The Magpies will be hoping all of their international players come through the break unscathed as head coach Eddie Howe manages a 'bizarre' injury crisis back on Tyneside. Newcastle currently have 14 first-team players nursing injuries or unavailable to play heading into the side's next Premier League match at home to Chelsea following the international break.
Any further injuries would come as a significant blow to Howe's already threadbare squad.
Seven different nations will be represented by current Newcastle players during the break while one of the club's loan players has also received an international call-up.
